SOURCE: How do I remove the crown/stem.

To remove the stem you must first loosen the set lever screw, then you can pull the stem out.
You only need to turn the set lever screw a couple turns to release the stem. Some movements use a button instead and in that case you would simply push the button down lightly with a pointed tool and while holding the button down pull the stem out.
For watches with one-piece cases where the movement comes out the dial side and the case has no removable back, you will not be able to get at the set lever screw. For this type of watch you must grasp the crown firmly and pull it out, or use plastic or soft brass tweezers to get behind the crown and pop it off. These watches have two-piece stems that have male and female ends that snap together. Then remove the bezel and let the movement come out into your hands. Then remove the hands and the dial and put the movement face down into a movement holder.

SOURCE: How do I remove the stem and crown from a Skagen

First, this isn't something you should do if you are not a trained watchmaker. Many people cause more damage by trying to repair their own watch just to save a couple dollars. But the movement (insides) of a watch are very fragile and some parts can be damaged by touching them with too much force.

If you are a watchmaker you need to remember to look for the detent. That is what you need to remove the stem.

The crown unscrews and comes of is this normal Is there a spring inside?.

The crown is attached to the "stem" by screwing them together. The procedure, and this is not a good do it yourself project in most cases, is to remove the crown and the stem. Hold the stem in a "pin vise" and apply a threadlock to the threads and attach the crown. Install the crown and stem in the watch and check to see if everything still works(setting, time adjustment, etc.) Might pay to have a watchmaker do this, this is more technical than it seems.

Just bought a technomarine watch and can't pull out stem to set time and date

Sometimes the crown is screwed in to help keep it water tight. Turn the stem anti-clockwise to see if it will release "give several turns" if that fails return it for exchange.

Crown will not push back in completely, it stays out in the first pull position

Sounds like the setting lever has disengaged from the stem detent. If you can remove the back off the case you may be able to reengage it. Look for either a small silver coloured pin or screw adjacent to the winding stem. If it's a pin use a sharpened match stick or similar and depress while pressing crown back in. If it's a screw - back the screw off about 1 1/2 to 2 turns, press crown back in and tighten screw again. Check operation of winder in all positions before replacing case back.

Remove the winding stem/crown.

There is a tiny point (end of small metal piece called setting lever) on the left side of the stem (on watch movement, very close where the stem is entering the movement).
You have to push that point down with a metal pin or tweezers. Crown (winder) must be pushed in to normal position otherwise you will not be able to put the stem back properly.
So, do as follows:
1) Push the crown in,
2) Lay the watch down on flat surface and push on setting lever point,
3) While holding setting lever pushed in- extract the setting lever by gently pulling crown out of watch.

Do not forget to rate, please.

Illinois pocket watch stem removal.

First you must say what type as there are differences depending on the mfg and model.Be the following basics apply.
1- Put the stem in the setting position (usually pulled out if stem set).
2 Them open cover to expose the movement. ( Screw off or snap open).
3- Remove the movement (Usually held in place with 2 screws at the outer edge.
4-Then if there is a screw in the part that holds the stem loosen that.
5- The stem can be held with a pair of pliers on the flat and the crown unscrewed. Be careful not to damage the square (FLATS), with the pliers. A rag or other safety measure should be taken.
6- then inside the stem hole, looking from the ouside the is an annular area around the stem that has a ferrule screwed into the case this has to be unscrewed and will bring out the stem and the ferrule.
This siounds complicated but the steps are more involved to write than they are to perform.
There are many variations to this process, and each type should be understood before proceeding.
